this is wild: while Stephen Miller's guy was in Minnesota for his uncle's funeral, somebody was able to see his entire phone and take pictures of his Signal group chats talking about military deployments to Portland, and brought them to the Strib (gift link: www.startribune.com/trump-offici...)

Starbucks Workers United @sbworkersunited.org · 21d

Starbucks’ absurd cup writing policy has spilled over into a potentially dangerous situation for green-apron partners.
The company is LYING about their own policy by suggesting there aren’t restrictions against pop-culture or political writing.
They threw their own barista under the bus for trying to
follow their rules.

Our union of 12,000+ baristas demands:

1. Set the record straight: The worker in Yucaipa told the truth about Starbucks’ policy guidance on cup writing. Starbucks suggesting otherwise only puts this worker in further danger.

2. Keep workers safe: Close stores temporarily if they’re doxxed or threatened online, and pay workers for lost shifts. Starbucks’ own policy and its cowardly response created this situation, baristas should not have to choose between safety and a paycheck.

3. End mandatory writing on cups: This policy has led only to putting workers in dangerous situations, bad press for the company, chaotic discipline against workers, and a federal unfair labor practice charge.

Shout out to brother @chicagolabor.bsky.social Pres. Bob Reiter on his rallying call to resist and fight back against the dangerous Trump administration "we educate, we organize, we mobilize!" bobreiter.substack.com/p/labor-day-...

Labor Day 2025, Gilded Age Revisisted

“May you live in interesting times.” An oft quoted cliché making light of society’s general or specific turmoil, I heard it frequently during the first Presidency of Donald Trump.
